There are a couple of advantages that I see for doing it from kernel. We can move 'kthreadd' and idle threads into the 'boot' cgroup early on and therefor later on won't even have to iterate through the tasks and stuff. Whereas user-space has to iterate through tasks and be smart about threads that are pinned and stuff. Not a big deal but if kernel code is simple enough maybe it makes sense. So, any pointers. How do I do create_cgroup() without fs mounted ?
